Diogo B Proietti @provete.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Antes disso, montei um curso próprio, Introdução à Linguagem R, com lições baseadas na minha disciplina. Está sob licença CC BY 4.0 e tem DOI no Zenodo: doi.org/10.5281/zeno...doi.orgdiogoprov/Introducao_a_Linguagem_R: v1.1.0: aula 06Nova lição: Modelos Lineares, seguindo o ciclo PPDAC. 100
Diogo B Proietti @provete.bsky.social · 17/09/2026No curso de Programação em R, traduzi as lições Olhando os Dados, lapply e sapply, vapply e tapply. Também corrigi o caminho dos dados que impedia três lições de abrir depois de instaladas. 100
Diogo B Proietti @provete.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Aproveitei para acrescentar notas pensando nos meus alunos de pós: leverage não é o mesmo que influência, overdispersion em modelos de Poisson, os limites do teste de Shapiro-Wilk e o que o confint() faz num GLM. 100
Diogo B Proietti @provete.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Não foi só traduzir. Conferi no R cada número citado nas lições e corrigi alguns errinhos do original. Por exemplo, o texto indicava as somas de quadrados erradas no cálculo do F da ANOVA, e uma lição citava médias de 2013 para dados que só iam até 2012. 100
Diogo B Proietti @provete.bsky.social · 17/09/2026O swirl transforma o console do R numa sala de aula: você lê, digita o código e recebe retorno na hora.
